Proposals in relation to the development of the three State airports, including Cork Airport, are in the first instance a matter for Aer Rianta, which has statutory responsibility to manage, operate and develop the airports and to provide such facilities and services as it considers necessary for aircraft and passengers. Aer Rianta informs me that the development programme for Cork Airport consists of a terminal building with capacity for three million passengers per annum, a multi-storey carpark with covered access to the terminal, air-bridges, the provision of hold baggage screening facilities and a control tower which will be equipped by the Irish Aviation Authority.
